Drive the lightweight fibre-glass British sports car
A total of 9 laps in one Britain's most stylish cars
High speed passenger ride in the Lotus Exige
This experience allows you to drive one of Britain's most loved soft tops. The Lotus Exige is a victim of its own beauty as it has been bought mainly for the cosmetic value it offers. This is a shame because the performance of the lightweight sports car is not fully appreciated. This experience allows you to test for yourself as you push the car to its limits on the race track. The Lotus Exige will really take your breath away.0-60mph: 4.9 seconds and based upon Lotus' renowned 'race car for the road philosophy', the Exige is a truly hardcore, mid-engine sports coupe. Its alluring curves and cutting edge design provide the ultimate package of balance and downforce, helping to make it one of the quickest and safest cars on the road today and an absolute thrill to drive on a racing circuit

I gave this experience to my fiancée and went to Silverstone with him. I was allowed to come out to the track with the drivers which was fantastic. The instruction he received was very professional and he loved the experience and has recommended it to friends.
